Garlic Chicken Pasta With Prosciutto Food

GARLIC CHICKEN PASTA WITH PROSCIUTTO

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450F and put a rack at the top of the oven. Place peppers cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast on top rack for 20-25 min. or until the skin is charred and pulling away from the pepper. Let cool at room temperature, peel, and slice into thin strips. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frypan and sauté the garlic until lightly brown and soft. Add the tomatoes, prosciutto, chicken, butter, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes, sauté for 12-15 minutes. The prosciutto should be just starting to become slightly crispy, careful not to overcook it. Season with salt and pepper being careful with the salt as the prosciutto is salty. In a large stockpot bring salted water to a boil and cook the linguini as per the packaged directions. Reserve a cup of the pasta water then drain the pasta and return it to the stockpot. Add the tomato/chicken mixture to the pasta along with the roasted peppers and parmesan cheese, cook on low heat adding the reserved pasta water as needed until the cheese has melted, the peppers are heated and stirring the mixture to combine.

Add the garlic and thyme and cook until the garlic just begins to soften, about 30 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the wine. Return to the heat and cook until the wine evaporates slightly, about 2 more minutes. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Add the cream and nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook as the label directs, adding the asparagus during the last minute of cooking. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain the pasta and asparagus.
• Add the cheese to the cream sauce and stir to combine. Add the pasta and asparagus and toss to coat, adding some of the reserved cooking water to loosen, if needed. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with more cheese.

• In a small bowl, stir together cream cheese, garlic, basil leaves and pepper.
• Place chicken tenders on a sheet of waxed paper. Spoon 1/6th of cheese filling evenly onto the center of chicken tender. Top with a second chicken tender. (Note: The original recipe didn't call for salt, but at this point you can season with salt and pepper.) Wrap a slice of prosciutto ham around the filled chicken. Repeat this to make a total of 6 stuffed chicken tenders.
• In large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat until foamy. Add chicken and cook 3 minutes, turn, reduce heat to low and cover. Cook 8 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink inside.
• Tip: Toss hot cooked noodles in the buttery pan juices left in the skillet. Add a little chopped parsley for a great side dish.

• Drain the pasta when it is tender but firm, reserving a little of the cooking water and adding it to the sauce if it appears dry (quite likely if you used fresh tomatoes). Toss the pasta with the sauce and most of the basil, along with the cheese. Mince the remaining basil, garnish the pasta with it, and serve.
